lyrics

OURS AND OURS ALONE

Sometimes, we’re just like solving a puzzle
Using feelings instead of clues
No need to crack the code or scratch our heads
No need for us to work out whose limb is whose

All the places we’ve been to
All the things that we’ve done
We don’t to define them, they’ll never be gone
We built this together, we built this alone
Didn’t build it as two, we built it as one
We don’t need to over-think it when we think about it…

Oh-oh - We know what we mean
No-one feels like we do
Oh-oh - We know what we mean
And what we have
Is ours and ours alone
Oh-oh- We know what we mean

Okay, I’ve been thinking about this
Wondering what, “we” might mean
I thought about this and I thought about that
I thought about everything in between

All the places we’ve ventured
All things that we bid
All those pure moments under covers we hid
I realize that we don’t need words
Words that describe, when we could just BE
Perhaps we don’t need to articulate it, articulate it!

Chorus

Feelings are feelings – words are just words
Wouldn't you rather we were understood than heard?

Chorus
